حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ الْحُصَيْنِ عَنْ وَاقِدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ سَعْدِ بْنِ مُعَاذٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ
إِذَا خَطَبَ أَحَدُكُمُ الْمَرْأَةَ، فَإِنِ اسْتَطَاعَ أَنْ يَنْظُرَ مِنْهَا إِلَى مَا يَدْعُوهُ إِلَى نِكَاحِهَا فَلْيَفْعَلْ. قَالَ: فَخَطَبْتُ جَارِيَةً مِنْ بَنِي سَلِمَةَ، فَكُنْتُ أَتَخَبَّأُ لَهَا تَحْتَ الْكَرَبِ، حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ مِنْهَا بَعْضَ مَا دَعَانِي إِلَى نِكَاحِهَا فَتَزَوَّجْتُهَا.
